Jay Halstead NSFW Alphabet 

This is a small apology for my hyper-fixation on my Rewind, Remix, & Replay (Burgstead story). I know it’s not a common pairing or a reader insert but it has been so much fun to write. I’m totally hooked on the couple. If you have any interest you can check it out HERE. 

 Anyway, enjoy some sexy Jay Halstead content! (I forgot how long these take to write) 

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex) 

Jay is all about aftercare. He will only leave the bed to clean himself and you up, or grab you something if you need it. Jay’s favorite way to give you aftercare is through physical touch. He wants to hold you, kiss your skin, tangle his finger in your hair. He wants the intimacy of having pillow talk or the playfulness of wrestling around or tickling you until you are begging him to stop.  

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s) 

Jay’s favorite body part of himself is his hands. They are rough and calloused from hard work and his time carrying around a gun in the desert. They can hold a sniper rifle and make perfect aim as well as run through your hair when you lay together in bed, or pull an orgasm out of you as you ride his fingers. 

Jay’s favorite part of you if asked would be everything. He loves your body and always claims he can’t pick just one part of you to be his favorite. But you have noticed his fixation on your ass. He is always slapping it as he walks by, grabbing it during sex, or sliding his hand into your back pocket. He had even bit your ass a few times when he had the opportunity. 

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically) 

Jay loves to come inside of you, it makes him feel connected to you. He will stay inside of your tight warm core until he goes soft. When he finally pulls out he likes to watch his come drip out of you and down your thighs mixing with the wetness of your arousal. He will clean the sticky mess but takes gratification in knowing that his DNA will linger on you long after he has wiped it away.    

D = Dirty secret (pretty self-explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs) 

One of Jay’s favorite things is to be woken up by you giving him head. There is just something about starting his day with his cock in your mouth. He doesn’t even care if it's just a warm-up and you guys end up finishing with sex.  

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?) 

Jay has plenty of sexual experience. While Jay prefers committed long-term relationships, he had his Casanova days in his early twenties and after bad breakups. He has learned and perfected how to please a woman. But Jay knows that no woman's body is the same and he makes it his mission to learn how to please you.          

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying) 

Jay’s favorite position is with you on top. He likes watching you bounce on his cock. Your breast in his face with easy access to his mouth. His hands can grab your hips or ass to urge you on.  He can kiss you and rub slow circles on your clit. He can let you take charge letting the pleasure roll over him or he can rock up into you to meet your thrusts.   

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.) 

Jay can be goofy during sex. He likes the banter your relationship has and it often leaks into the bedroom. Sassy comments or jokes can have you both laughing into each other's kisses. Once or twice you had got each other laughing so hard that you had to take a break mid sex to catch your breath.  

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.) 

Jay keeps himself trimmed for the sake of hygiene when he is single. When he is busy it drops low on his list of worries well below food and sleep. When he is in a relationship, he is more on top of it making sure it stays in his normal routine. He is more aware of the length of his facial stubble too. He doesn’t want to leave you with a constant healing beard burn. 

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect) 

Jay wants intimacy in his relationships. It’s not romantic in the normal aspect of flowers and fancy dates. It’s getting to know you, the banter you share, the drag of his stubble against your skin as he kisses every inch of your body. It’s being tangled together naked afterwards sharing soft kisses. 

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon) 

Jay was in the military for years so he knows how to jack off quick and efficiently. Jay doesn’t masturbate a lot. He does it more for stress relief than anything else. He usually does it while in the shower for quicker cleanup. If he is in a relationship, he will get himself off if you are not in the mood, but he has to go without for a while before he even considers it.    

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks) 

Jay likes to have sex in public places. The threat of getting caught makes the experience more thrilling. He also has a praise kink. He wants to know how good he is making you feel. He loves to see you flush with his praises and tell you what a good girl you are.  

L = Location (favorite places to do the do) 

Jay's favorite place to have sex with you is on the bed. There is plenty of room to do an array of positions with the comfort of a soft mattress and sheets. Jay is also a sucker for having sex with you pressed against walls. Whether it's your hands holding yourself up as he pounded into you from behind or your legs wrapped around his waist nails digging into his shoulders. Jay is also a fan of having sex in semi-public spots- he enjoys the thrill of almost getting caught. 

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going) 

Jay is pretty easy to get in the mood. Flirty banter, heated looks, and caressing touches will pull his mind to dirtier things. Jay is a visual man so seeing you in lingerie or his clothes is a big turn-on. The two of you pulled an all-nighter when you were draped across his bed in nothing but one of his flannels unbuttoned, red lipstick, and his dog tags hanging between your breasts.   

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs) 

Jay will not do anything that could cause you physical harm. He is okay with spanking, restraining, and even some light choking- leaving little bruises and love bites but never wants to cross the line where something could actually hurt you. Jay is very monogamous. That along with his possessiveness and jealousy makes the idea of another person joining you guys in bed an immediate no.   

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.) 

Jay has a talent with his tongue and it’s not just for his sassy smartass remarks. His oral skills are otherworldly. He can get you off in a matter of minutes with just his mouth if he isn’t in a teasing mood. He is a fan of using his fingers too. If his mouth or fingers can make you feel pleasure on their own, how much will you receive with both? Jay doesn’t like to stop when he starts either. Your legs are shaking and have come twice already and are edging on overstimulation. You’ll just have to wait until he is finished. 

Jay loves receiving as much as he enjoys giving. He will thread his finger through your hair pulling it back into a ponytail. He likes to tug the strands but mostly it makes it easier to see your eyes. It does something to him to see you on your knees, your face flushed, cheeks hollowed, sucking on his cock eyes locked with his. Jay likes to thrust into your mouth and loves it when you swallow but he will never force you to do either and will give you a warning before comes.   

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.) 

Jay knows there is a time and place for both. He leans towards the more rougher side pace. The friction of your bodies together, the bouncing of your breast, his hips snapping against yours. There are days that he wants slow intimate lovemaking. He will lay you down and worship every inch of your body, caressing all your dips and curves. He will rock into purposefully letting you feel every inch of his cock rubbing inside of you.  

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.) 

Jay loves quickies. Life is busy and there isn’t always a lot of time for long drawn-out sex. If an opportunity arises for a quick fuck he almost always says yes. He had on more than one occasion locked the two of you in a bar bathroom, hushing you as he fucked you from behind. He likes the thrill of not having a lot of time and having a chance of being caught.  

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.) 

Jay is a risk taker, the man has spent years in the army and likes a good adrenaline rush. He is down to try any position you can find or come up with. Jay likes to have sex in public, he likes the risk of being caught. It’s a challenge for him- can he get you off or fuck you while keeping you quiet enough to not get caught? Can he turn you on enough for you not to care if you do?  

You guys have got caught once in a bar parking lot. Luckily the person in question didn’t know you were having sex and just thought you were making out heavily. You were still fully clothed except for your panties. The skirt of your dress was spread over his lap covering the fact that he was buried deep inside of you. Both of you were so turned on that you continued with minimal thought after the person had made it to their car. 

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?) 

Jay has a high stamina. He is more willing to give up sleep to pull an all-night sexathon. If you are up for another round, most likely so is he. He just needs fifteen to thirty minutes for his refractory period. He is more than willing to keep you warm up with oral, fingerfucking, or just making out with caressing touches. 

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?) 

Jay isn’t a huge fan of toys. He won’t be offended if you ask to use them with him or add them to your sex play. He will use them and use them well but he would rather get you off himself. He is more into restraints and blindfolding his partners.  

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease) 

While Jay is a massive flirter and likes to tease you outside of the bedroom, he isn’t a big teaser sexually. He is a complete pleasure junky- your pleasure. He wants to make you feel good and is more likely to overstimulate you with orgasms than to edge you with teasing. He does it occasionally when he feels like you are being a brat and needs to be taught a lesson.     

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.) 

Jay isn’t necessarily loud but he is a groaner when he has sex. He likes to dirty talk in bed and loves to make you moan as loud as he can. You can get him to be pretty loud too with the right encouragement. Mostly it is a string of curses that turn into moans as you clench around him.  

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character) 

Right after Jay returned from deployment he was touch starved. He didn’t feel like himself enough to build new relationships or even maintain old ones. He spent his first few months bouncing from one girl's bed to the next using a fake name. During that period the sex felt mechanical and didn’t do much for him but it did give him the physical contact that he was craving. He would completely wear his partner out so he could lay there and hold them after they fell asleep. Unfortunately, it never really helped barely taking the itch away. He often left their beds feeling more empty and isolated than before.

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes) 

Jay has an athletic build, and his body all smooth lean muscles. He has strong arms and broad shoulders. He had a washboard stomach with six-pack abs and a cut V of his hips. Jay is above average in the length of his cock easily hitting six and a half inches when he is hard. His dick is on the slender side but still thick enough that it takes your body time to adjust to him when he first slides in.    

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?) 

Jay has a high sex drive. He would prefer to have sex three to four times a week if you are willing. He is insatiable when he comes back from long UC operations. He can’t keep his hands off you or his lips to himself. When he is working bad cases or is having PTSD flashbacks his sex drive tends to drop drastically or cause dry spells.     

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards) 

Jay wants to make sure you are taken care of after you have sex so he stays up until he is sure you have gotten the aftercare you need. He enjoys basking in his relaxed state, clear mind, and tired body, after his orgasm for as long as he can. You usually fall asleep first unless it has been a multiple-round night and you are curled up with him. Jay is a light sleeper from his time in the army and will wake up if you get up or move around too much in your sleep.

Hunt for Tragedy: Chapter One

A lot can change in 7 months. Sometimes, it's good change. Sometimes it's bad. But for Scout, it's bad change.

7 months ago, Scout reunited with his father, who had left when Scout was a baby. And it would turn out his father was Spy, a sassy, irritable Frenchman and Scout's coworker.

Spy died only a week later, sacrificing himself to save his son and his teammates from an otherworldly beast.

But to the Administrator, the death was merely a waste of money. As she said, "mercenaries are expensive."

Miss Pauling talked her into giving everyone time off so she could find a replacement for Spy, as well as new mercenaries for BLU Team.

Time off was the last thing Scout wanted. Almost everyone would end up leaving the base, except for Pyro, Engi, Sniper, and Medic.

Scout returned to Boston with his older brother, Jonah Bidwell.

His last survivng family member.

Scout stopped answering his teammate's calls. He didn't want to hear the fake pity in their voices.

Sniper left messages for him.

But they started to get shorter, until 4 months had passed, and Scout got one last message from the Australian: "Call me back."

Scout didn't care that they stopped calling.

He's lost too much to care.

-

Jonah opens the bedroom door, and enters. Scout doesn't look as he enters, and pretends to be sleeping.

"Scout? I made breakfast." Jonah says. Scout can smell the pancakes, but says nothing.

"I know you're awake, Scout." Jonah pokes him.

"I'm not hungry. Fuck off." Scout glares at him.

"Don't lie to me." Jonah sits on the bed, snatching the pillow away. "I know I can't force you do to anything, but... at least eat the pancakes. It's Mom's recipe. Your favorite?"

Scout still says nothing.

"Why don't you call Sniper back?" Jonah asks.

"I don't want to talk to him." Scout sits up, irritated. "Can you go away?"

"In a minute, fine... but just listen for a moment, okay?" Jonah looks at Scout, his face serious. "I did a bit of digging about Spy's family. You had a half-sibling that died in 1941."

"Is that it?" Scout frowns. "You're my half sibling. Hell, every brother's a half brother--"

"There's more." Jonah cuts him off. "Spy's name was Jacques Murnau, and it turns out his family was really rich. They had a mansion in Paris. Jacques inherited the Murnau will after his parents and sisters were killed in a fire. And he passed that will onto you. Scout, you've inherited a fortune."

Scout stares at him in silent shock.

"What?"

"There's more according to the will, but it's located in Paris. If you want--" Jonah starts.

"We're going to Paris! As soon as freakin' possible!" Scout sits upright. "I gotta see this to believe it."

"Alright." Jonah smiles. "I'll call Miss. P and see what she can arrange. In the meantime, why don't you eat and take a shower? And... maybe call Sniper back."

"...alright." Scour nods, and Jonah leaves the room to let Scout eat.

-

Scout stares at the phone. He has to call Sniper. But would Sniper be willing to listen?

What would Scout even say? They hadn't talked in months.

With an ever-so-slightly shaking hand, Scout dials the number written on a piece of paper, and listens to the dialtone as somewhere many miles away, a phone rings.

"Hello?" An Australian voice asks, and Scout's voice catches in his throat.

He has to talk.

"Hey, Snipes." He says. "You wanna to go to Paris?"

I hope you like it! It isn't much, but Chapter 2 is being revised and edited currently! An IRL friend agreed to help me with writing by assisting with editing and serving as peer revision, so it might take a bit for every chapter to be released. But I hope you enjoyed! I'm almost done setting up a seperate blog (had some issues with making a new email to use), so that'll be up and working sometime this week!

THIS IS SO GOOD ANON!

I can't wait to see the new blog, thanks for keeping us updated:)

TMNT Bayverse Mikey x Reader Playtime

SFW FLUFF

The "prequel" to my Headcannons titled Hands on Their Weapons (2/4). I was thinking I would just open with a little skit and get into the headcannon but NO at this point it's just a slice of life fic I guess. Are they Headcannons? Probably not because I just can't keep anything short enough. It's okay there are no real rules. I say this as I should be doing my day job but instead I am writing some self indulgent story about imaginary turtle men.

Fun fact: Mikey was my first fav growing up because he was always sassy and charismatic. He's got a lot of charm and I hope that shows.

Mikey

"Catch me if you can, Angelcakes!" Mikey said bolting off through the liar.

You, armed with one of Donnie's high accuracy plunger dart guns, had ten chances to hit the rambunctious orange banded turtle as he parkoured, flipped and boarded around the lair and the connecting sewer tunnels. You followed him out of his room but as you entered the main dome of the liar it was quiet.

You looked around suspiciously. Donnie in the zone coding at his work station. Raph blasting tunes and working out. You could just see Leo in the kitchen making a sandwich.

You smirk as you come up with a plan to get him to come out of the shadows. You waltz over to Donnie, completely unaware of the outside world beyong his headset presumably filled with some kind of EDM. You look over his shoulders, "I didn't know that pizza actually induces pheromone production in turtles!"

You heard Leo choke on his sandwich just before Mikey rolled by on his skateboard flexing and announcing, "that must be why I'm the most irresistible and good looking of all my brothers." Leo having almost recovered begins coughing again.

You spin around, take aim, and fire. The enhanced plunger arrow whizzes through the air by Mikey's head. "Oh so close my dearest cupid, but I am already struck by your electric LOOOOOOVE" he breaks into song as he boards down the hall towards the skatepark/parkour arena they had.

You follow behind, avoiding eye contact with Leo as you feel his eyes burn into you for instigating such a ridiculous conversation. Entering the arena and staying in the shadows you take aim once more at Mikey who has taken a moment to perch at the top of a half pipe to indulge in refreshments. You fire. He leaps out of the way, not spilling his Orange Crush can and hanging from one of the many parkour ledges effortlessly. He opens his mouth to assault you with one of his witty comments just you fire again.

Plop.

It hits the soda can. "Mr. Bond," he says in a deep srrious voice, swings himself up and begins hopping around, leaping from platform and swinging from ledges, "I don't think you are quite qualified to hold that liscence to kill."

Plop.

You stick another on the wall just in front of him. Seven left. "Why is it that people who can't take advice always insist on giving it?" You respond in a horrible attempt at a British accent.

Plop. Plop.

Two more narrowly graze his chest and shell as he backflipped down to the half pipe towards his skateboard. You huff in frustration but take a deep breath to focus.

"Who do you think my favorite James Bond actor is?" you ask moving to higher ground to lay on your belly like a sniper.

"Easy, Daniel Craig, best action." He spouts.

"Wrong." Plop.

Mikey nearly trips out of the way as you stick an arrow right in front of him, keeping him from getting to his board.

"Ah yes too modern for a classic girl like you. I suppose Sean Connery is too classic for you?"

You chuckle to yourself. If you can keep him from his board and distracted with pop culture, you've got the upper hand. "Compared to his later works, his James Bond portrayal is really child's play."

"Oh it must be Roger Moore! The man's got the face for Hollywood. You'd fall for him in the blink of an eye, I mean who wouldn't?" He tip toed closer to his board, keeping an eye on you. The moment your finger twitched he leapt at the board but this time you hadn't aimed at him. Plop! The arrow hit the board pushing it over the edge of the half pipe and sent careening aimlessly back and forth.

Mikey lay on his stomach reaching down yearningly "Mufasa noooooo!"

Three left. Plop! He rolls to the left. "Please I have a family! Three beautiful children!" He begs dramatically.

Plop! He rolled to the right. "We're friends right? Friends don't let friends get shot, you know. How about it, Angelcakes?" He makes big puppy dog eyes and your composure falters.

Mikey leaps to his feet, you do as well scrambling down towards him. He sprints to the exit but trips. He stands again and is knocked prone with an oof.

You can't see what happened but you hear Mikey exclaim, "Dad no!"

Splinter comes out of the shadows with a smug glimmer in his eyes. "Do not underestimate who your enemies allies may be. While some may succumb to your charming tactics, my son, others are not so forgiving." And with that Splinter spins Mikey on his shell.

As the youngest brother came to a stop, dizzy and defeated, Splinter looks to you and puts a hand on your shoulder. "Go ahead, take the shot." You aim at Mikey's crotch at first, he finches to shield his manhood, and you pull the trigger landing the last little plunger square between his eyes.

Splinter howls with laughter. "Oh, y/n, you bring new joy to my life. You must tell me about this Bond James sometime. He sounds veeeeery exciting." And with that, he disappeared into the halls.

You look back to Mikey, still on his back, looking a bit bummed. You smile softly and climb into his lap. You hold his baby cheeks in your hands and say wistfully, "These violent delights have violent ends, and in their triumph die like fire and powder." You remove the dart from his forehead and kiss the spot it left.

"Which as they kiss, consume" Mikey whispers finishing the Romeo and Juliet quote. He wraps his arms around you, smiling like an idiot, and rocks himself to his feet holding you like a princess.

He looks down at you, "I have the perfect reward for succeeding at being such a devilish opponent." Your eyebrows scrunch in confusion. "Tickles!"

Laughter erupts and fills the sewer tunnels. The rest of the boys break a little smile, they appreciate your laughter more than you know.

[overwatchfics]

This my first time submitting a match up, so sorry If i fuck up in any regard.

you prolly already know I few things about me

I'm a 5'7 Straight Male (Short ass Bitch I know) some of my hobbies include Playing video games and practicing any type of combat sport, examples including, MMA, Boxing, and Wrestling. I like to fight. A lot. Not even tryna brag. My favorite video game of all time is Team Fortress 2, I usually like playing some pretty competitive games. I also enjoy watching anime. As for describing my personality, I act very chill and introverted to those I don't know, typically not speaking unless spoken to. Once i start getting better acquainted with someone, I startling acting a little less recluse, more energetic, and a little more talkitive. I'm very VERY desensitized and I find humor in a lot of things that people would reprimand me for laughing at. But I don't care about em, like at all, I might start trolling them actually. Even tho I like to troll people a little bit, I'm loyal to my friends and family. Like no funny shit, I can confidently say I'd straight up fight for my friends and family. I mean like throw hands, not joking. Lastly, something I think is a little funny, I'm slightly insecure about my height lmfao. But I can laugh about it Ending this off, for my Zodiac sign, I'm a Taurus

Theres a lil bit bout me, sorry if this seems long

I pair you with...

MEI

Ok ok, I have this HC that Mei did some MMA classes or something bc of this skin.\

Mei is such a sweetheart, it's contagious and allows you to feel more open with her. When she finds out you enjoy MMA you are immediately invited to her house sat on the couch bundled in a blanket as she orders delivery.

I feel like Mei has a secretly dark side to her humor that you could align with

BREAKS CHARACTER AND SHIT TALKS THE LOSING FIGHTER IN THE RING LMFAO IF Y'ALL ARE WATCHING UFC.

Does not care about height (If any girl you're with cares about your height they aren't worth it my dude, I am also incredibly insecure about my height so I vibe with this.)

Mei treasures her friends deeply so very strong foundation there.

2nd Choice: Sombra

Is very very sassy, but she is also incredibly easy to talk to

Very sick puppy sense of humor so you two would absolutely go crazy

Sombra torrents anime and she is not ashamed of it

If there's a hacking sniper in TF2 she will take over and force them to walk into enemy lines and cause their gun to be stuck in a reloading loop.

Likes to watch you fight or watching fights on tv together.

Doesn't have many friends but is always eager to meet more and keep em around since talon isn't exactly a good place to foster.

Like a good person, she doesn't give a shit about fighting.

💥🪄🎙 pretty pls my darling 💖

BELOVED 💕💕💕💕

💥find your least kudos'd fic - say something wonderful about it.

Oh, we're starting off hard ball I see. FINE FINE. Actually, this is pretty easy because Entr'acte has 117 kudos *sob* and it's one of my favorites. (Also kind of my fault because I didn't really promote it and that series isn't popular at all and this fic is basically a connecting interlude but regardless...)

Entr'acte is the epitome of Buck lovingly, devotedly taking care of Eddie post-sniper and how lost they both would be without each other. It has two scenes in it that are among my all time favorite ones I've written. The shower scene and the vague otherworldly dream where Eddie sees Chris and Buck mourning him (in a reality where Eddie died after being shot by the sniper.)

🪄what is your post-writing/sharing aftercare? How do you take care of yourself or celebrate yourself when you've finished a fic?

Does obsessively waiting for nice comments count? 🤣 Idk usually I just get back into writing the next thing. Writing itself is the nice outlet and the therapy for me. Also I bother my wifey and my friends until I can excitedly ramble about it with them 🙃

🎙️which one of your fics would you like someone to make a pod-fic of?

Ummmm any one of them? idk no one has ever done that for one of my fics, but I tend to write massively giant fics that would destroy someone if they tried to read them out loud. Color Him Father would probably be okay though? Or even Aftermath because snarky sassy Eddie is LIFE.

Had to travel by himself to the US and rely on strangers to get him there (no money in his name). Eventually joined the Marines at 20, met Dusk (his Colonel). Blah blah blah, went up the ranks. At 28 he dragged Dusk out of the field half exploded and left the Marines soon after Dusk did. Joined Shadow Company 🫶

Issues: PTSD, nightmares, paranoia, nervous at being touched randomly

Habits: never takes off his mask unless he's REALLY comfortable, sleeps with it on more often than not. Hovers close to people he likes cause he doesn't like to reach out and touch people, settling on subtle hands on shoulders or light brushes of skin.

Not in uniform - form fitting short-sleeve shirts and jeans most of the time. Occasionally switching it up for loose shirts when his compression shirts feel too tight and strangling for a casual day. He wears belts to at least make it seem like he cares about his outfits, even though he doesn't really put effort. Picking up whatever dark colored shirts and jeans he can find and calling it a day most of the time.

Freckles are speckled over his face, arms, neck and shoulders, and legs. Body hair over his chest, arms, and legs mainly. Occasionally lets other Shadows paint his nails when they ask (requests black but can't say no if they choose another) so sometimes has painted nails.

Tadaaa, here you go 🫶 sorry if any of this is jumbled up or hard to understand, it's late and I don't think I'm reading shit right 💀

Feel free to let me know if you need me to elaborate or change anything on here ❤️

Character sheet- OCs

So because of the google doc, it would probably work better if there’s a general outline. So the information is easier to asses.

So! What type of info would you want to see added? Yes I did take lots of the items from others because yeahhh, so please suggest what else I should add or what I should change :)

[genesis-of-the-between]

I’ve yet to draw this since I came up with this idea on the bus today but! New magical girl concept!

I have three characters for this story and I might make more but who knows.

The story takes place in London. British magical girls, baby!

They get their powers from a source that I have yet to come up with, but for some reason they’re all based off junk food. No one knows why. They just go with it.

First one is Adelinde, or Ada for short. She’s in year 12 (17) and goes to this prestigious school on a scholarship because she’s really smart. Her parents run a very popular bakery and she’s kind of torn between pursuing a career in STEM or taking over the family business. At some point she finds this magic artifact of some sort and becomes a magical girl named Candy Floss who’s more or less the typical glitter-and-sparkles-the-power-of-friendship type, but she has her own spin to it.

Next is Conway, the token twink of the group. He’s technically a magical boy, but same old. He’s very sassy, very gay and very rich. He got into the prestigious school solely because he has a lot of money. He inherited all that money from his dead parents in true Batman fashion. As a magical boy, his name is Soda Pop and he has a sniper rifle. Blue Hair And Pronouns Shoots You. To be honest he’s my favorite. He too is in Year 12.

Last but not least is Sienna, who is also very rich but has much less flair. She’s classy and plays the violin. People don’t like her because she doesn’t know how to socialize and therefore is very distant from her peers. She’s really nice though, if not a bit of a tsundere. Her magical girl identity is Cinnamon Twist, who, to her dismay, is much more popular due to her apparent “mommy? sorry.” energy. She hates it. Conway finds it hysterical. She also has fire powers.

Conway and Sienna are mlm and wlw soliditary and Ada is their adopted daughter. I accept no criticism in this regard.

I’ll probably draw these guys at some point but right now I have no access to the necessary materials to do so.

Don’t tell anyone but this idea was sparked by the fact that we’re reading The Outsiders in class and one of the characters is literally named Sodapop. why. why would you chose the name Sodapop of all things. (please don’t spoil anything for me)

A Halo 4 appreciation post about two things that I want to mention:

Halo 4 has some very under appreciated osts. Most "halo" fans kind of hate the sound tracks but I would say Neil Davidge and Kazuma Jinnouchi did fantastic work. But I want to focus on my favorite osts among them and how I feel each of them tells a story.

117: 343 gave Master Chief his own theme which somehow reflects the very essence of what John is. It is believed that John's trait is his luck. In terms of stats the entire Blue team is better than him. Kelly has the fastest reflexes, Linda is the best sniper and Fred is second in all stats. But as bad Halo 5 was, there is an underrated scene in which the blue team starts getting tired of fighting Warden and his minions and Fred Kelly and Linda think they might give up but John tells them they need to keep going and they can't give up now. This confirms one thing, John's trait isn't his luck its his tenacity, its his willingness to fight until he fulfills his mission. And 117 completely emulates them. Listening to that soundtrack just brings that sense of tenacity and the willingness of not giving up.

Arrival: This ost tells us about a losing battle that John has been fighting alone , but he can't afford to lose the battle because it would cause mankind's extinction. Halo 4 gave John an antagonist that he can't defeat with brute strength and his enemy is winning every round. Combined that with Cortana's rampancy we got a ost of desperation , a battle that John has to win at every cost, and the cost finally comes.

Green and Blue: An ost of final farewell. John thinks he has died as he punched the nuke but the song starts with hope of survival and then the realization happens. The song gets sadder as the reality dawns on him. He couldn't keep his promise, the cost finally came and his world starts falling apart and he doesnt know how to show these emotions. He had to make a choice and he took the harder one and lost perhaps one of most important person closest to him.

Legacy: An ost of fall of civilization(humanity),agonized screams of ancient humanity that was defeated in Charum Hokur and degraded from a Tier 1 to a Tier 7 species, I don't know why but the way Ancient humanity was degraded to a point where they had to start over from scratch from a point of extinction to tier 3 civilisation is really a sad story and this time it wasn't even their fault. Neil Davidge has done a really good job for ost wrt to Forerunner and ancient Humanity.

These were my thoughts on my favorite osts from Halo 4. Now one more thing that I extremely liked about Halo 4 are all the rampancy cutscenes of Cortana and how both John and Cortana were dealing with it. It was like looking at a person closest to you who had been a charming sassy fellow losing their mind in dementia, and the person unable to stop it despite how much they try. How John has to choose between duty towads this closest person and duty for humanity. The scenes where John is in denial that he might fail in saving her, just assuring her but more himself that he will be able to save her, the scene in Composer where Cortana apologizes for the mishaps caused,(which feels even sadder knowing that Cortana could do processes much more complex than that with a snap of her finger but the more rampant she got the more human she became and more prone to mistakes),and the scene where John calms Cortana down when she goes in depression after Didact steals the composer, soothing her by telling her to focus on those she can save, the sadness John expresses through the scream when he thinks Didact has killed Cortana but still moves forward to fulfill his duty, culminating in the final farewell where his denial is shifted to realization where he doesnt know how to deal with this loss thinking that the situation can still be resolved, the way his head shift in regret of not saving her as Cortana places her hand on him, the sudden hand raise and twitch while he says "wait" as Cortana says her final farewell and the way the entire hardlight walls fall, signifying his world getting shattered to pieces. Steve Downes, Jen Taylor, Bruce Thomas and Mackenzie Mason really brought a new sense of life into our favorite Green Blue pair with their amazing Voice Over and Motion Capture. God I cry everytime I see those cutscenes. I kinda hope Halo Infinite draws inspiration of some osts from Halo 4 too, along with the emotional side of John that we got to see in Halo 4.

TOG as the siblings they so obvioulsy are!

Joe and Nicky ADORES Andy! They’ve known each other for nearly a millennium. Her every word is law in their world, she’s the Ultimate Big Sis/Boss. The Andy & Joe chemistry borders on the sassy. You know they find an opportunity at every moment to tease the other one. Andy and Nicky share many memnories, deep down they have the same outlook on life. When Andy is with Nicky her cynicism disappears and they inspire each other to be better people. It’s a silent agreement between them ever since they met all those centuries ago, due to the unfortunate circumstances.

Andy and Nile: Started out as a mentoring relationship, quickly grew into equals. With Nile, Andy can finally be a girly girl again, should she wish. Nile talks to Andy about guys, troubles and life in general. She makes Andy remember how it was to be so connected to ‘the real world’. Even if Andy is happy that she’s finally mortal, she wouldn’t have been so content were it not for Nile and how she makes Andy’s last life so rich and full, instead of just another life out of too many.

Andy and Booker: How to describe the most complicated relationship of the lot? At times it feels like it’s the two of them against the world. Other times they can’t even bear to look at each other and Nicky or Joe has to step in as mediatorer. The first couple of decades they had several differences of opinions, but both mellowed out over the last century. Neither can live without the other one.

Nicky and Nile: At first, Nicky was an enigma to Nile. But she found as soon as she dug a little deeper, he was wise beyond words and a comforting presence. Nile quickly earns his trust and respect, and he willingly shares his thoughts with her, something the others had to work longer for. If she was forced to choose, Nile would pick Nicky as the most inspirational figure in her life.

Nile and Joe: Joe is Nile’s favorite storyteller. He tells his stories with his art, words and just his entire being. And Nile is an eager listener. Other than their obvious bond over their many shared interests, they’re the two most extroverted in the group. He’s without a doubt her ‘fun’ brother, the one she spends the most time being silly with.

Nicky and Booker: Lighthearted fun and games. They enjoy learning from one another and listening to the other’s life experiences. They have a couple of extremely long-running inside jokes that neither remembers the origin of but they still keep at it to this day, much to the annoyance/bewilderment of the rest. The times they’re alone together, Booker finds his mind calms itself around Nicky.

Booker and Nile: Booker takes his role as big bro very seriously! He thinks he’s inconspicuous when he’s subtly trying to look out for her and make sure she’s safe. Nile is well aware of what he’s doing yet lets him. And the satisfaction she gets every time she shows him how capable she is of avoiding danger is merely a bonus. If Nile just wants a casual chat, Booker is the one she goes to. She loves the others, but they have a tendency to become philosophical too easily.

Joe and Booker: Fights! Jokes! Wrestles! Fun! Ultimate bros. Heated arguments about the remote control. Will one moment gush about how they’re best friends forever, arms hanging around each other’s shoulders, and the next moment they’ll be in a shouting match, arguing about who’s turn it is to sweep the floor or water the plants.

Joe and Nicky: They’re relationship is NOT a brotherly kind of relationship 😉😉😉😉

Old Guard hc #172

Hooooooly cow it’s so perfect! I’m going to use my imagination for the next few.

Joe and Quynh: They’re relationship started because Quynh learned Joe was an artist and she demanded he make a portrait of her. Whenever they needed to vent to someone that wasn’t their significant other, they would go to each other. It almost always turned into an art session. Quynh liked being the center of attention and Joe had a subject who not only stayed still, but also understood his frustrations very well.

Nicky and Quynh: Sniper Siblings™️. They bond over shooting things. They talk about the trivial parts of life. Sometimes, they would sit in trees and throw things at targets. They’re the siblings who just enjoy each other’s company and actively seek the other out to do stuff.

Booker and Quynh: They both understand each other. 200 years in each other’s shoes every single night ties two people in an inexplicable way. The hardest conversations are the easiest with each other. Most of the times, words don’t even have to be exchanged. One look at the other’s face and they know. Hell, they can still feel those emotions as if it were their own.

Nile and Quynh: Sisters. One hour together is fine. Two? That’s just asking for a yelling match. They don’t not like each other. They’re just two very stubborn and different people. They have the relationship where one will come into the other’s room just to ask where X is. They’re the type to tell the other to step on a lego, probably throw some legos on the floor too, but if anyone other than the fam hurt the other, they would f up that person. Without letting the other know of course. They have a reputation to uphold. The whole fam finds their relationship ridiculous.

Andy and Quynh: They’re relationship is NOT a sisterly kind of relationship 😏😏😏😏

Andy and Lykon: If Quynh taught Andy how to live, Lykon taught Andy how to be young again. They’re literally siblings with the giant age gap separating them. Andy adored him. When they would talk about life, he would curl up under her arm and rest his head on her chest. Was he too big for that position? Yes. Did it matter? Absolutely not.

Quynh and Lykon: When they weren’t fighting over Andy, they got on extremely well. They’re both people who thrive off of chaos. The amount of pranks they’ve pulled together is unbelievable. If they wanted to do something childish, they would immediately seek the other out. This relationship is very different from Joe and Booker’s because Quynh has a brain. The decisions Quynh and Lykon made had actual thought put into them.

Save Me - Sherlock x Reader

Chapter 8: Talk to Me

Pairing: Sherlock x reader synop: some relax time for the rest of the night Taglist:  @reveluvspecial​ @ravencatart​ @germansarechill​  @sassy-potato-yall​ @melanoms​ @middleearthmama​ @fullmoonshadowwrites​ 

A/N: this took a little longer to write! woopsies!

With a heavy sigh, you lay Henry onto the couch with a blanket. “You should get some rest, sweetheart. You’ve been through so much today.” 

Silence. 

“Would you like anything to drink?” 

He rolls over, head facing the back of the couch. 

Sherlock walks out of the kitchen with a glass of water and gingerly sets it on the table. With hands on his hips, he turns to go sit at one of his experiments in the kitchen.

You run your fingers through your hair as you look for a laptop. You feel his eyes follow you around the flat until you give up looking. When you make eye contact, he looks to the left of you.

“Thanks.” 

The ghost of a smirk forms your lips when you see it sticking out of his chair cushions. When you open it, the blinking cursor for the password halts your tracks. 

Looking up from the laptop you see the corner of Sherlock’s lips twitch. From a good distance, you get lost searching his eyes for the magic words. 

“Letmein”

His eyebrows raise as the screen to his computer lights up your face exposing your sad, amused smile. 

“Henry, Would you like to watch something?” 

“No.” 

You snap the lid shut and set it onto the table. “Okay. well, at least let me know if you need anything…” 

Silence

Shaking your head, you quietly make your way to the door. “I’ll be back.” 

At the bottom of the stairs, you hesitate with your hand on the door. With a sigh, you take off your coat and hang it on the rack. Your shoes follow underneath. Sitting on the stairs, you rest your elbows on your knees and your head on the railing. Your eyes practically burn holes through the door locks. 

The sound of footsteps do nothing to bring you back to the present. Although when the figure sits beside you, your eyebrows furrow.  

“Hey.” 

Sherlock hums and glances at his phone. 

You pull out a bullet from your pocket and toss it in your hands. Your thumb rubbing across the engravement on the side. 

“A bullet? You don’t even own a gun.” 

You pause and press the tip into your middle finger. “It’s my father's ashes. When he died, I had him made into a live round.”

Silence

“Oh come on, not you too. John told me you never stop talking.”

He rolls his eyes and scoffs. “What is the point of carrying around a dead person's ashes?” 

You clench your jaw and turn your gaze to the ground. “If he passed away normally it would be one thing, but he was murdered. Sentiment, Sherlock.” 

He sits quietly for what felt like minutes before he takes an audible breath.

“He was murdered by a gun, I presume. what kind?” 

“Sniper round. I looked around the outside of the house but I didn't see anybody.” 

He hums. “You wouldn't have seen anyone. What was the scenery like there? I’m assuming somewhere with a tree and some brush, did you look near those?”

Your eyebrows furrow. “Yeah. I found a smeared footprint but even when the police took evidence, it got them nowhere.” 

“You’re… American. I presumed it happened there? No wonder why they didn’t solve anything. You said they were smeared, were there any broken branches nearby?”

You close your eyes and lie back onto the stairs. “I think… there were a few, yes.” 

  “You think or you know? They could have fallen from the tree and broke their leg or they could have tried to cover tr—”

You cover your face with your elbow. “I didn't ask for you to solve his murder, I asked for you to help me get rid of the hit men's clients that have been tailing me.” 

Before Sherlock can reply, John walks through the door carrying a few bags that looked to be carrying food. He paused after the door closed and quizzically looked at you on the stairs. 

"What are you- never mind." 

He reaches into one of the bags and digs inside for a second. After he finds what he's looking for, he tosses the brown paper tube at you. “I told Sherlock to ask you what you wanted to eat but he never got back to me.” 

You smirk as you look at the package. “Well, he never asked me.”

“You never stopped talking.” 

“You were asking me questions.” 

“And none of them were about supper.” John cuts in. 

Sherlock sighs as you chuckle to yourself. John calmly squeezes past you both up the stairs to 221b. 

Sherlock stands and turns around. “where’s my food?” 

John smirks. “You didn't answer my message.”

Sherlock’s mouth hangs open in offense. Before he can respond however, John has already welcomed himself home. 

You look up to see his eyes burning holes through the door. Laughing, you break your sandwich in half and toss it at him. 

“I can't eat that much. I’m too used to light meals. Please, have it.” 

He turns it over in his hands and nods at you. Halfway up the stairs, you get up to follow after him. Once inside, your attention is drawn to the sound of a kids tv show. Looking from the Scooby Doo episode to the couch, you find John and Henry involved in the show. With eyebrows raised, you glance to sherlock. 

Sandwich between his hands, he brings his fingertips up to his chin. “It’s actually impossible for them to deduce that outcome with the evidence provided. It’s entirely by chance.” 

Henry sits up. “Actually, Mr. Holmes, it’s not impossible. You just have to search for the right clues.” 

John hides his smile as he looks to the wide eyed Sherlock. “Yeah, what he said.” 

You shake your head as you make your way to the kitchen to eat. “You blog almost every day and your only additional comment is, ‘what he said’?” 

John lets loose his smile as he turns his focus back to the telly. “Yep.” 

Sherlock follows you into the kitchen. “Don't touch any of my experiments.” 

You chuckle. “Calm down tiger, just looking for some paper towels” 

“No, you’re not. What is it that you really need?” 

You cross your arms and lean into the counter, your eyes fixed onto the blood filled slide under the microscope. “Why did you block me from Nick at the warehouse?”

“The kitchen roll is in the cabinet on your left.” 

You smirk “Oh no you don’t. You are not avoiding this. You asked what I needed, and I’m telling you.” 

“Some things are best left unsaid.” 

Your eyes snap to his. “You wouldn’t have done that if… if he was going to…”

“You and your son wouldn’t have been harmed in any of the scenarios that I planned out.” 

You open your mouth to speak, but nothing comes out. Your body shifts as you lean onto the counter. With arms crossed, you study his notepad on the table. 

He clears his throat. “I know. You’re welcome.” 

After a bite of your sandwich, Sherlock leans on the counter next to you and starts to eat his. The corners of his lips tug into a smile as he watches Henry and John discuss their favorite characters from the children's cartoon. 

“We are putting you both in danger by being here.” 

Sherlock scoffs. “Nonsense. I’m in my own danger by living here.” 

Rolling your eyes you laugh. “I think the only dangerous person here is John.” 

He shakes his head. Before he can reply, you turn to him. “You know, you’re pretty cute when you think you're a badass. I mean, you are. But when you’re being showy, it's cute.” 

He coughs on the bite of his sandwich. “Pardon?”

Smirking, you push away from the counter. “I think it's about time for bed. Goodnight, Sherlock Holmes.” 

As Sherlock retreats to his bed, you smirk at John, Henry, and the cartoon on the telly. “Alright, kids. I think it's time we go to bed.” 

Henry wines and falls back onto the couch, his eyes on the ceiling. “But mom, just one more?” 

John stands up and stretches. “I think she’s right. It’s getting late.” 

Henry sighs and marches away to the bathroom. While he’s gone, John and yourself start to make the couch look like a bed. 

“You know,” you sigh. “How did you change his attitude?” 

When John straightens up, he sets his hands on his hips. “All I did was talk to him.” 

Your eyebrows furrow. “What did you say to him?” 

He smiles and shakes his head. “That's something you need to find out on your own.” 

You tilt your head back and groan. “Another relationship I need to sort out. How fun.” 

“Another?” 

Glancing from Sherlock's door to John, you shrug. “Did I say another?” 

He chuckles to himself and shakes his head. “I’ve been watching you both. He’s quite satisfied around you. I’ve seen the way you look at him when he’s not looking. I may not be as intelligent when it comes to deductions and such, but I do have a better understanding of human feelings than he does.” 

As you open your mouth to respond, Henry walks past you and gives John a hug. “Night.” 

Henry briefly hugs you before he takes up the couch. After a few moments, the flat falls quiet. Sitting on the floor leaning onto the couch, you sigh and lean your head back. 

Maybe you could get some real sleep. Even if you could only get a few solid hours.

Next chapter: coming soon!

2021 fic year in review

Tagged by the Lovely and Incomparable @reallysmartladymariecurie thank you, darling! 💕

Total Number Of Completed Works: 14 (is what we’ll call it even though I have a few WIP series)

Total Word Count: ~335,000 (side note how in tf)

Fandoms I’ve Written In: 911 and a teensy bit MCU

Looking Back, Did You Write More Fic Than You Thought You Would This Year, Less, Or About What You’d Expected?: Waaaaay way way more. I have never ever written this much for anything. And given as I had never seen an episode of 911 before May of this year, didn’t exactly expect that at all. (but omg how I love them 😭)

What’s Your Own Favorite Story Of The Year?: So hard to pick because they’re all pretty different? My Heart series was a complete labor of love and an unintentionally massive love letter to all of Buddie fandom (and their story up through s4) because the sniper incident was what got me into the fandom. So of course this story is very special. I am still not sure how I wrote 137K in four months. still over here going hOOWWW????? I am also very very fond of The Aftermath of Liberation and Love Confessions. Who doesn’t love sassy petty Eddie? 

Did You Take Any Writing Risks This Year?: idk just writing in general and pushing myself to stay with it? Which isn’t really a “risk” per se but putting anything out there kind of is? I also like to play around with prose in general. I think it’s fun, especially in moments where a character is completely out of it or blindsided by something, to make the narration more poetic or lyrical? With repetitive lines or lack of punctuation and things like that.

Do You Have Any Fanfic Or Profic Goals For The New Year?: I do have a few series to finish. I was going to work on my alternate canon s2 Buddie series during hiatus but then I got started with a post 5a fic of pain (I’m fixing them I promise we’re working on ittttt) that I’m really enjoying and I’m really excited about what’s coming up in the next chapter.  Also, I have to finish Bannerella at some point because I’ve been working on it off and on for almost 10 years and it’s just ridiculous at this point. 

Most Popular Story Of The Year?: Technically? Based on kudos, it’s Plus or Minus, which I sort of figured might be the case? It was an idea that a lot of people seemed to theorize about (T*yKay gets a job offer and asks Buck to go with her) but I hadn’t seen any fics about it where that was the whole premise? (Totally could have missed them. So sorry if I did!) So I think it got quite a bit of traction just because people wanted to see that play out. But if we’re being honest, I think it’s one of if not my weakest piece. I do love the two scenes with Eddie (and Christopher) and the whole Eddie stress cleaning because it’s apparently A Thing lol. But overall, I’m still pretty meh about it. *insert shrug emoji*  However, if we go by some responses and reactions that I received, I’d say Aftermath (and even my What I Did for Love fic) seem more popular to me. Though if we go by number of bookmarks, it’s my Heart series.

Story Of Mine Most Under-Appreciated By The Universe, In My Opinion: Okay, I’m going to ramble here because I think I either didn’t summarize this one very well or I posted it too late and people were over Halloween, but I really really loved, In the Darkest Time of Year, and I swear basically no one read it. It’s kind of like Aftermath in that it’s sort of a holiday fic? But not really? It’s also an Eddie POV story in which we are tormented by repression and go through a whole Halloween shift of spookiness and emotions to get Eddie to confess his feelings. The goal was to really break him down and threaten him with losing Buck forever if he didn’t come to terms with everything he’s been holding in. 

There are sweet scenes with Eddie and Hen working together and being friends! (and I wanted them to have that whole sexuality conversation without being super straightforward about it?) and there’s mutual pining and longing with Buck, and not one but TWO scenes of Eddie vs T*ylor ethical conflict snarky fighting showdowns (including one right in front of Buck 👀) plus it all has this maybe magical realism, maybe mental breakdown hallucination sort of things that I thought gave it an interesting twist. Also has the tragic gay cheerleaders 😭 and I had a lot of fun hinting at these mythological figures and giving them personalities. Oh plus??? I somehow got into making it a kind of Orpheus/Eurydice type story only the twist is that Eddie is Eurydice because Buck pulled him from death, but they’re both still stuck in that moment of the sniper shooting so Eddie worries that he will be trapped in death and the underworld.

Anyway! I would love you forever and ever if you went and checked it out! 

Most Fun Story To Write: Hands down. Aftermath of Liberation and Love Confessions. Snarky sassy petty Eddie! Buck getting roasted for the lame T*yKay love confession! Ravi being adorable! A couple super fun OCs who were inspired/based on my late grandparents. Oh, and let me tell you that Buddie kiss? Was one of my favorites to write. Also, I didn’t get to do this for a couple of fics where I think it needed it? But I got to slow down the ending for this and give them some time to figure things out. Which meant you got to see them be cute and together after their big confessions and I really liked that. 

Most Unintentionally Telling Story: Also, Aftermath. Eddie’s whole confusion about defining his sexuality and his coming out scene. I feel that so hard. demisexual!Eddie my beloved 😭 Plus, obviously the two OCs (Larry and Patricia) are very special to me. It was fun bringing them back to life in a sweet, ridiculous, silly way. All the love confessions, too, and having everyone essentially tell their own love stories hit very close to home because every single one is inspired by my own wife and how much I love her and how important she is to me. 

Biggest Disappointment: I think I already rambled too much about that lol. But In the Darkest Time of Year

Biggest Surprise: Writing this much at all? Falling so hard for this pairing and their little family and weirdly identifying so much with both of them but in different ways? Also, I am still surprised by the reaction I received to Aftermath. I wasn’t sure people would like it! But it was so much fun to write and I loved it so so much. So, if anything, I’m very grateful people loved it :) 

My Favorite Part Of Fandom This Year: Oh gosh. I’ve been enjoying all the amazing writers and meta-ers and gif makers and artists! You are all so incredible and so talented and I adore all of you. Also, I have to agree with @reallysmartladymariecurie because I joined the fandom between 4x13 and 4x14 and omgggggg was that wild. I’ve met such kind and wonderful people who just amaze me every day with their friendliness and enthusiasm and I just really love all of you. It’s been a long time since I was so excited about a fandom and it’s largely because of all of you. 💕💕💕💕💕 Giant hugs and love for you all! 🤗💕

I’m going to add a few here, too because they just need to be mentioned!

Most Memorable Scene to Write: There are some scenes from Heart of Flowers/Heart of Gold that I just really lovelovelove and feel they had to have happened in canon in some form but we just didn’t get to see them. But the one that really sticks out to me is basically a 4x04 addition where Buck goes to Eddie and Christopher’s after the “love me anyway” dinner with his parents and has a breakdown in the key of, “what did I do wrong/why can’t anyone love me.” And his boys smush him in a hug and snuggle him. It’s still one of my all time faves. Also? When Eddie’s parents call and not only does he get to tell them off but he has to argue that he (and Christopher) deserve love? Oh, that was fun. 

Favorite Kiss: The overall story is still in progress, but I think the beginning can still be a standalone. So, if you want to know my all time favorite Buddie kiss that was just the most fun? It’s from Reset the Clock. Also the love scene near the end of Heart of Flowers/Heart of Gold is 👀👀👀👀 just saying. 

tagging: anyone who wants to do this! I am not sure who has already been tagged but I want EVERYONE to do this pleasseeeee

[killerandhealerqueen]

top 5 favorite female characters 😊😃?

Ooo, good question anon

1. My bad bitch, Chu Ran (Killer and Healer)

You know she's gonna be #1 in my list. She is probably the most well written female character I've seen in a very long time and I just...she's a bad bitch. She's also super smart and stands up for justice and for the truth and I just love her

2. Miss Zhong Yiren (Killer and Healer)

She a bad bitch too. She's another well-written female character and surprisingly, one of the only female characters in Killer and Healer to not fucking die besides my baby Keying. But yeah, we love her. She's sassy and a little bitchy, but so full of love and I wish she had the happy ending with Sun Yongren that she wanted

3. Kusaka Ryoto (Doubles)

She's one of the best written Japanese female detectives I've seen. She complains about her job, sure, but she's a damn good detective and even though she has a romantic plot, that's like...not her whole...personality? Like, that's kind of a subplot to her actual job, which is nice. Actually, all the female detectives are written well in this drama, especially for 2013.

4. Ma Han (S.C.I.)

My original bad bitch before Chu Ran came along. She's another well written female character where she's smart, she's a detective, she's a badass (she's literally S.C.I.'s sniper, like come on)...she's just cool, okay?

5. Wan Zhan'er (The Sleuth of Ming Dynasty)

I actually have a lot of females from this drama that I like, but she's probably my favorite because a) she's a fucking general of an all female army like ma'am... b) she takes absolutely no fucks from anyone, not even her smarmy brother (who she actually bitch slaps in one of the episodes and I loved her for it) and c) she loves the emperor/her husband like...a lot and she loves Wang Zhi like her own son...like we love a woman who can be a boss ass bitch while also being a softy at the same time. Yes ma'am.

Honorable Mentions:

Wen Qing (The Untamed) - a badass female doctor? Mm, yes, I think so

Jiang Yanli (The Untamed) - my beloved shijie

Mianmian (The Untamed) - yes ma'am, stand up to the old men. Be that bad bitch

I'm very picky with my female characters so this list was a little hard, but I think these are probably my top five female characters and of course Chu Ran is at the top. And of course my lovely Untamed ladies who I couldn't forget about. They're not my top five, but I do love them so I had to give them an honorable mention

Ask Me My Top 5/Top 10 Anything!

Glaz/Kapkan headcannons with some +18

I’m very bored so i decided to do headcannons for these to dorks c:

Remember that fics/hcs requests are always welcomed in my ask box! Don’t be shy!

Glaz dude

Glaz sketches kapkan so much he has a sketchbook exclusively to sketch him.

Glaz isn’t a fan of hunting with Maxim, because Maxim will demand him to cover himself in dirt and sometimes poo to erase his smell of human. But he does go hunting with him now and then. Maxim understands his reasons and doesn’t mind.

Glaz just loves to tease Maxim in public, even more if the place is crowded. His personal favorite is to press his crotch against Maxim’s butt in front of everyone. He’s gotten punched in the sides more than once but it was totally worth it.

Glaz is a little jealous, he tends to get sassy if any of the boys in the base start to act nice towards his hunter.

Glaz hates going against his lover in the simulator because he knows Maxim will do everything in his power to pick on him, and it’s not something he can avoid, his position as the sniper of the team leaves him very exposed.

Glaz is the big spoon, he likes pressing his body with Maxim as close as possible, making the hunter his personal body pillow.

Kapkan dude

Kapkan enjoys being Glaz’ sketch model, his patience is often regarded at their bed.

God only knows how touched starved Kapkan is. He loves when Timur perches his hands over his hips or shoulders so much he can’t help but snuggle into his hands either if they are in public or not.

Kapkan is very likely to catch a cold because of the time he spends in the cold, and whenever he catches one, Glaz attends him and cares for him a lot, he always acts as if he doesn’t need any help and constantly declines Glaz’ help but lowkey loves when Glaz is hovering over him.

Kapkan is always looking over the sniper whenever they’re deployed together, even if those are not his direct orders, he’s always making sure to keep an eye on the one who’s supposed to keep an eye on him

Kapkan tried to teach Glaz how to hunt with the excuse of if ‘you ever need to, now you know’ but got his hand crushed accidentally with one of the rabbit traps and swore he will never get near them, because well, it caught the hand he draws with. 

Kapkan has hanged every single portrait Glaz has made for him in his personal room at the central base except for the explicit ones, those are at their shared cabin.

Kapkan likes to leave flowers and scent herbs he finds when he is outdoors hunting and leaves them in Glaz’ desk. Glaz will put them in his breast pocket to show the world what his hunter brought him.
